Ep. 75 – Artivism in Theatre, Jewellery & More with Maeve Stone

Only this year did I get to meet and work with Maeve for the first time, on a youth led climate project called Rising Tide (which is definitely worth checking out). Having known of her brilliant human rights and environmental activism through art for a long time, I’m only DElighted to finally have her on the show. You can check out her website here, where there’s also a contact page, or follow her on Twitter @maevestone.
